ANNULLING Meaning and
Definition
-
Annulling is the action or process of declaring something to be invalid or void from its inception or from a specific date. It involves officially revoking or canceling the legal validity or existence of a particular document, agreement, contract, or marriage. Annulling is typically undertaken when it is determined that the original act was fundamentally flawed or has significant deficiencies that render it null and void.
This process is often carried out by a competent authority such as a court of law or a governing body, and it may require sufficient evidence or legal grounds to prove the annulment's necessity. Annulling aims to erase the legal effects of the annulled act as if it never occurred, restoring the parties involved to their pre-existing legal positions.
In the context of a marriage, annulling is different from divorce as it treats the marriage as if it never legally existed. This may occur due to various reasons, including fraud, misrepresentation, impotence, bigamy, or lack of consent. An annulled marriage has no legal or valid standing, unlike a divorce, where legal recognition of a previous marital relationship persists even after it is dissolved.
Overall, annulling is a legal action taken to effectively declare something invalid or void, whether it is a marriage, contract, or any other legally binding agreement, rendering it null and void ab initio or from a specific date.
Common Misspellings for ANNULLING
Etymology of ANNULLING
The word annulling derives from the Old French anuller, which comes from the Latin word annullare. In Latin, annullare is formed by combining ad (meaning to) and nullus (meaning none or void). Together, annullare means to make null or void. This Latin term eventually evolved into anuller in Old French and then into the modern English word annulling.
